Engineered for ReliabilityManufactured from high-quality, high-density hardwood and bonded with phenolic resin, this concrete shuttering plywood ensures exceptional performance under demanding concrete casting and formwork conditions. The waterproof acrylic edge sealing and film-faced finish significantly improve its resistance to moisture and ensure long-term durability.
Optimized for Multiple UsesWith a robust structural design and WBP grade glue, the plywood can be reused up to 812 times, delivering impressive cost-efficiency on-site. Strict thickness tolerances and a smooth surface finish contribute to uniform concrete casting and allow for consistent results throughout successive uses.
Tailored for Construction VersatilityOffered in standard or customizable sizes (such as 8 ft x 4 ft or 7 ft x 4 ft) and thicknesses, this plywood adapts seamlessly to various structural and architectural requirements. Its high bending strength, lightweight design, and smooth brown surface make it well-suited for heavy-duty shuttering, infilling, or general formwork tasks.
FAQs of Concrete Shuttering Plywood:
Q: How should Concrete Shuttering Plywood be stored and maintained for prolonged reuse?
A: To maximize the lifespan and reuse cycles (up to 812 times), store the plywood in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Clean the panels thoroughly after each use and avoid mechanical damage during handling to maintain the film-faced surface integrity.
Q: What is the main advantage of using WBP (Water Boiled Proof) phenolic glue in this plywood?
A: WBP grade phenolic glue provides superior bonding strength and moisture resistance, ensuring that the plywood maintains structural integrity and performance even after repeated exposure to water or humid conditions, which is essential for demanding concrete shuttering applications.
Q: When is it recommended to replace the shuttering plywood sheet?
A: Replace the shuttering plywood once you observe surface delamination, deep scoring, or compromised edge sealing, which could impact concrete finish quality or structural safety. With proper care, each sheet typically lasts for 812 cycles, but actual lifespan depends on site conditions and handling.
Q: Where can this concrete shuttering plywood be used effectively?
A: It is ideal for use in all types of construction projects requiring formwork, shuttering, or infilling for concrete casting. Its high density and moisture-resistant properties make it suitable for residential, commercial, and infrastructure development sites across India.
Q: What is the process for preparing the plywood for the first use in formwork?
A: Before initial use, inspect the panel for any visible defects, apply a suitable release agent on the surface, and ensure the edges are sealed. Proper preparation minimizes sticking during demolding and prolongs the life of the plywood.
Q: What benefits does edge sealing with waterproof acrylic paint provide?
A: Edge sealing with waterproof acrylic paint prevents moisture ingress through the sides, reducing swelling or delamination and enhancing the panels durability, especially during repeated concrete casting processes.
